All,

Version 0.9.16 of WE4Java has been released to script central. The change log is shown below. The major highlights are that the script now includes the StandardHelpDialog; so, you have the option to turn automatic updates on or off from the script manager. A change in the shell calls for the setup.exe will hopefully avoid the 740 error from some vista users. Also, the java code has been updated to now be able to read popup message boxes in your java applications. 

 

One other thing (Jesse and Jamie) to note. The Install WE4Java to a Java Environment utility now contains a Validate Install button (alt+v). this checks for all the WE4Java files in a given directory and also lets you run a small test class. The results of the test class run are put into an edit popup box and also copied to the clipboard so you can send the results to me. <smile> 

 

Here is the full change log:

 

Beta Release 0.9.16 - Tuesday, 2/24/2009

 

This release contains the following updates:

 

  * The WE4Java.vbs script has been updated to include the StandardHelp 

    logic in order to enable the Help/Controls button in Script Manager. 

  * The shell objects used to execute the setup.exe and the install java 

    utility have been updated from wscript.shell to shell.application. 

    Hopefully, this will avoid the 740 error reported by some vista users.

  * The Install WE4Java to a Java Environment utility has been updated to

    include a new button called Validate Install (alt+v). This option

    will check a java environment to make sure all the required wE4Java files

    are present and will then prompt the user to ask if a small test program 

    should be run. If yes is selected, the test java class is executed. 

    Whether the test class is successful or not, the console output of the 

    test run is placed into a popup edit window and is also automatically 

    copied to the clipboard. In this way, a user can paste the results 

    into an e-mail to be sent for trouble shooting (e.g. to Jay Macarty).

  * The WE4Java java code now includes the ability to read popup message 

    dialogs created by the JOptionPane object. The Swingset2 demo 

    contains a sample tab for JOptionPane showing 5 different types

    of dialogs; input, warning, message, component, and confirmation. 

    The dialogs also contain a mixture of regular text and html formatted 

    messages. Testing thus far, indicates all dialog types can be read.

    

NOTE: The dialog title bar is not always being spoken correctly. This is being 

      researched.
